Ambulance chasers want money up front. Uh. Hired the lawyers I could hire. They were the ones who wouldn't even try to settle the workmans comp case until Cliff was dead.

They held out to see if I would get a surviving spouse benefit. (Didn't get it. He lived too long past initial injury date. Like I needed that.)

Meanwhile, Cliff never saw ANY benefits from his claim whatsoever. I got set back to zero, financially - and that's all. I can't tell you what we went without, because we didn't have coverage for it up front. Grim and unfair just begins the description.

The company the ambulances worked for has since gone under. I was told everyone got paid. I don't think they got paid in time.

I got billed in the thousands. I learned to ignore it. My credit report is still reeling from the entries to all the collection agencies back in the day.

And this is nearly nine years ago now. I'd HATE to be dealing with this in today's world.

Dude. I'm telling you I need alcohol to discuss this stuff. Ask Rey how much money I had for this kind of thing. He was around.
